UKeiG CPD Zoom Course: Research Data Management for information professionals – from researcher need to effective service
Tuesday, 18th March 2025 - 1 pm to 4 pm

The goal of librarians is to run services that meet the needs of users. For Research Data Management (RDM) this means understanding researchers’ activities, motives, perceptions and feelings around their research and their data. This online course explains how to find out about users and their needs and then to apply this knowledge to create a portfolio of research data services that they will want to use
.
Who should attend?
Information professionals and librarians with an interest in or responsibility for supporting research, especially RDM, or any professional wishing to keep their skills up to date in this important field. CILIP - the
library and information association – has recently revised and updated its Professional Skills and Knowledge Base (PKSB) online tool, and it reflects the increasing relevance and high profile of data-related
skills.
